Reminds me of an odd experience I once had, about 18 months ago.
I was awoken by the burglar alarm going off at 3:30am. I ran downstairs, half asleep, bare-arsed and unarmed, not even stopping to consider the possibility of an actual intruder! Reset the alarm, back to bed.
I was just beginning to doze off some ten minutes later when I was suddenly aware of the room becoming very bright. I was... shall we say, more than slightly startled when I opened my eyes, to see that the TV in the corner of the room had switched itself on! As the screen became brighter and a picture started to appear, it suddenly went off again! o.O
Anyhow, only a few minutes later from beneath the safety of the duvet, the burglar alarm went off again. After much cursing I plodded downstairs again and reset the timer - noting that it was again motion sensor #3 in the hall at the bottom of the stairs that had triggered the alarm.
Alarm people came a couple of days later, could find no fault with the alarm or the motion sensor.
I wish I could blame Nintendo for this. Unfortunately I can't. To this day I don't know what to blame. It was a very strange night.
Anyhoo, glad you've decided to return it. The people in the Wii ads on TV look like right prats waving their arms about in front of the TV.
[edit] oh, one more thing; I had to disable the i/r port on my laptop. The TV went bananas every time the laptop was on - all of a sudden it would just change channels by itself, or turn the volume right up to the top. :/
